Definitely. Like prior years, we can meet up at 7:30AM at the Southgate (Publix) shopping center located at: 2515 S Florida Ave, Lakeland, FL 33803
As before, we are scheduled to arrive at the show promptly at 8, so we will leave together and caravan over around 7:50 or so.
I'll send out an email with this information as well.

Hi There,
I've been monitoring the situation throughout the day. As of right now, the show organizers have said that tomorrow's show will take place in two neighboring parking garages and that the event is still on. But the forecast is for thunderstorms all day and “strong storms” while the show is going on. I’ll check the forecast early tomorrow to see if the forecast changes drastically but as of now I agree to cancel our participation. It's unfortunate, but I wouldn't want us to risk our safety since we are all traveling there in our cars. It may be different if we had trailer queens.
I'll provide a final call by 6 am.
Regards,
Dana

As of 5 AM, the weather forecast is the same: thunderstorms all day and strong storms/wind while the show is happening. Due to this, and the rationale above, our participation is cancelled. Of course everyone can make their own individual determination to attend if they choose, but the weather for the day does not look good.
Regards,
Dana
Did anyone go? What was it like?
Thanks,
Lenny

I got a report from a friend who was judging concours cars that in general, there were much fewer cars there due to the weather, and they had the show in 2 parking garages. He said there was one local (Lakeland) DeLorean there.
Evan, was that you?
